Up with Grups Animation Girl
LTK14403546841X
“Up with Grups” is a new animated series developed in the unique style of digital cut-out; this is a choppy, photo-realistic style (ie. Check out www.itsjerrytime.com for reference to the style). As such, we’re looking for narrative-style voice over actors for an entire series of shows (Ten 3-minute episodes).
What’s a “Grup?” Well, the urban dictionary defines it as “A grown-up in the minority, finding themselves among younger people. Grups, in the case of this show are 2 psuedo hipsters, a Jewish girl and an Indian guy, who are married to each other.
The show encompasses their bedtime conversation prior to going to sleep. The show always begins with them in bed discussing their day. The body of the show is a flashback into a certain segment of one of their experiences during that day. By the end of the show we loop back to their bedtime conversation before they turn the lights off.
The character should be performed with a very hip or pseudo-hip, new age casualty.
Character 2: Jewish.Girl
-Late 20s
-Born in America (parents of European Jewish descent)
-Definitely attractive and in much better shape than her husband.
-She thinks she's environmentally conscious, but she really isn't.
-She has dark hair.
-She is dressed in a fairly unsexy cotton sweatshirt that zips up.
-Reads US Weekly or on her iBook with tons of environmental stickers on the back.

FADE IN:
CHYRON: YOGA MASTER I AM
EXT. LOFT APARTMENTS - NIGHT
INT. BEDROOM - SAME
WE SEE A TWO-SHOT OF THE GUY and GIRL, lying in bed. The
Girl reads "US Weekly" and The GUY has an ice-pack, a
cast, and a sling on his arm. He struggles to type on
his Macbook Air.
TV ANNOUNCER (O.S.)
(obnoxious female voice)
Let’s talk about obesity in America. It’s
disgusting, everyone is fat. I’ll tell
you this, if you're not skinny, then
you're fat... and gross.
WE SLOWLY PUSH IN ON THE GUY as he pulls out a bottle of
pain killers and downs a bunch of them.
GIRL (noticing the pills)
Babe, you shouldn’t take so many pills.
Not natural. Not good for you, babe.
(beat)
You know what those do to your liver,
right?
GUY
I don’t care. Everything hurts.
GIRL
You’re such a wimp.
GUY
(beat)
God, I can’t believe you talked me into
going to yoga...
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. STUDIO - DAY (FLASHBACK)
Guy stands outside the Studio door, waiting for class to
begin. He holds his Yoga Mat, and a cup of green tea.
He takes frequent large sips from the tea cup.
GUY (V.O.)
I got to class way too early, so I picked
up some green tea. I was anxious so I
ended up drinking like three cups. That
was a mistake. Can you hallucinate on
Green tea?
GIRL (V.O.)
Babe, that’s a lot of caffeine for your
little princess body.
GUY (V.O.)
Yeah, I was really shaky. It was
kinda’ve cool...
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. YOGA CLASS - (FLASHBACK CONT’D)
The Guy sits on his mat, waiting for the class to begin.
His eyes wander to SEVERAL HOT WOMEN on mats around him.
Guy’s eyes get really wide...
GUY (V.O.)
Kinda like an out of body experience.
The classroom morphs into a beach scene (the mats become
beach towels, the women’s yoga outfits become bikinis,
etc.) The Guy lies in the middle of the group of women,
sipping a fruity drink and wearing sunglasses.
GUY (CONT’D)
(to the group of women)
Plank position? We just met!
All the women burst into laughter and snuggle-up to him.
All of a sudden, the Girl (V.O.) appears. She taps Guy
on the shoulder, ending his fantasy. The background
changes back to the yoga studio
GIRL (V.O.)
(to Guy)
Wow, I’m so proud of you, my own little
yoga creep.
The Yoga instructor enters. He is obviously gay (but not
flaming). He immediately focuses on Guy.
YOGA INSTRUCTOR
Hooray! A new Yogi! What’s your name?
GUY
Well...I mean, I’m a little out of
practice.
I guess I could give it a go. My
grandma, or Dadima (the girls gasp),
trained me to perfect my ArdoMakoo...
YOGA INSTRUCTOR
Shawanasa.
GUY
Good, you just passed the first test.
Girl (V.O.) appears, the class is paused ala “Out of
This World.”
GIRL (V.O.)
You are such an idiot, I can’t believe
you can screw up a trip to 24 Hour
Fitness.
GUY
Oh, you are quite wrong...I rocked it!
GIRL (V.O.)
Please, you can’t even touch your toes
sitting in a chair. Portion of the script provided for audition purposes only :
